Vinnie wasn't complaining at all about her sweet demeanor. He would definitely say it was for the better because he had seen what a rough past and outlook on life could do to someone and it wasn't good. It made them put up walls to keep people away and that was no way to live. Sure, the world was a cruel place, but you didn't have to let it dictate the way you lived and he admired that about Zevira.
Of course she was gonna get caught quickly. Vinnie had speed and a longer stride on his side. He laughed again when he heard her giggle. It was probably one of the cutest sounds he'd ever heard. Pulling her in, he tightened his arms around her as she tried to get away. "Oh no, you're not getting away that easily. Especially since you don't have any cannolis for me.."
Picking her up, he slung her over his shoulder carefully with his arm wrapped around her back to hold her in place. "So are ya gonna tell me what my surprise is or am I gonna have to keep walking around with you like this?" he chuckled as he dribbled the ball back to where they had started off.
